Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

your close friends become your worst enemies
your boyfriend becomes your ex
lollipops turn into cigarettes
the innocent ones turn into whores
homework goes in the trash
cellphones are being used in class
detention becomes suspension
soda becomes vodka
bikes become cars
remember when getting high meant swinging on the playground?
when protection meant wearing a helmet
when the worst things you could from boys were cooties
when dad's shoulders were the highest place on earth and mom was your hero?
race issues were about who ran the fastest
war was only a card game
the only drug you knew of was cough medicine
wearing a skirt didn't make you a slut
the only things that hurt you were skinned knees and when goodbyes only meant until tomorrow?
and we couldn't wait to grow up....
